<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>2019 Reprint of 1941 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Originally titled <em>The Red Decade: Stalinist Penetration of America</em>, this work describes a period in American history in the 1930s characterized by a widespread infatuation with communism in general and Stalinism in particular. Lyons believed this idolization of Joseph Stalin and of Bolshevik achievements to have reached its high point in 1938, running deepest amongst liberals, intellectuals, and journalists and even some government and federal officials. Of relevance today in light of the current interest in Socialism expressed by young voters and progressives in the U.S.</p><p>Table of contents: </p><p>Introduction: In defense of Red-baiting -- The five ages of the Communist International -- A party is born -- Boring from within -- The Moscow solar system -- The American party is purged -- The milquetoast takes command -- The Red decade dawns -- Fascism has the right of way -- The cult of Russia-worship -- The liberals invent a utopia -- Apologists do their stuff -- The Red cultural renaissance -- More planets are launched -- Moscow adopts the Trojan horse -- Communism becomes Americanism -- The incredible Revolution spreads -- American league for Soviet war mongering -- Stalin's children's hour in the U.S.A. -- Stalin muscles in on American labor -- Russian purges and American liberals -- Hooray for murder! -- "Friends of the G.P.U." -- Cocktails for Spanish democracy -- Revolution comes to Hollywood and Broadway -- America's own popular front government -- The typewriter front -- Intellectual Red terror -- The last loony scene -- The melancholy retreat of the liberals -- New fronts for old -- And they called it "peace" -- The menace today.</p>
